Publisher description for Synfig 1.0

Synfig Studio is a free, Open Source 2D vector and timeline-based animation application. You
can use Synfig Studio to create feature-film-quality animation, web animations and
advertisements.
Key Features Include:
-Spatial resolution-independence:
Most elements are vector-based and all layers are parametrically generated, hence even when
changing the target resolution of a project, the only pixelation will occur in imported raster
images, not the built-in components.
-Temporal resolution independence:
Animation-keyframes are automatically interpolated by the computer, resulting in smooth
motion.
-High Dynamic-Range Imaging:
By using floating-point math in the image calculations, HDRI processing allows canvases to
internally understand a far greater range of pixel luminance, resulting in better lighting
effects, and improved color composition.
-Pentablet-friendly tools:
The draw tool already reads the pressure sensitivity channel off your favourite tablets, for
natural line weighting, and more to come!
-Artist-oriented design:
Synfig has been designed from the ground up with animation workflow in mind.
-Path-based Gradients: Synfig has full support for gradient paths - gradients
that follow along a drawn shape. This allows artists to easily add soft shading to animation
without the trouble of painting it onto every frame.
-Layers: Synfig supports a multitude of layers of various types; geometric,
gradients, filters, distortions, transformations, fractal and a few others.
Synfig Studio is a feature rich application that has numerous features
including High Dynamic-Range Imaging (HDRI) and artist-oriented design and path-based
gradients.
